The Kuia Series Kuia means “grandmother” in Te Reo Māori. A Kuia is also a wise female elder whose guidance is revered. The ways in which colonization has eviscerated Māori culture is only just beginning to be repaired through the courageous advocacy of the Māori men and women who respect their lineages. Of these, the Kuia, the women elders, stand out in their stalwart, staunch and unwavering representation of the integrity, skill and dignity they sustain. This series, that began with the previous post on Te Puea, is dedicated to the Kuia lineage.
